#179 Mary: Although it would be generous to give them away, I think I’d keep them for my family. :) I would definitely try one of your newly posted recipes…chicken, bacon, broccoli, and rice anyone?!! YUM!!

Congrats Sheryl and Mary! I’ve sent y’all an email! :)

*Our hearts, love, and prayers go out to every family suffering after the tragedy in Connecticut. We are so sorry and heartbroken for your loss.

To celebrate Christmas, family, and holiday baking, we are excited to share this giveaway from the kind folks at Anolon for the Anolon Cook & Tell event. Today we are giving away two (2) Anolon Nouvelle Copper 11-Piece Cookware Sets. We are thrilled to share this giveaway with our sweet friends and readers here at Kevin and Amanda. I love hearing from each and every one of you.

This top-of-the-line cookware set is packed with features I love when it comes to cooking. Here are some of my favorite things about these pans:

Heavy stainless steel base makes this cookware suitable for all cooktops, including induction. Stays level on a flat cooktop.

Oven safe to 500º F.

Have you seen all the new recipes I’ve been sharing lately over on the recipe section of Kevin and Amanda? :) If you need some ideas for “quick and easy weeknight meals” here are some of our new favorites I’ve been cooking up in these pans:

I would keep them for myself and pass my old ones on to my baby brother who is getting his first apartment! Then I would cook something savory in them because I’m starting to get sick of Christmas baking!!!!!

Such an awesome giveaway! I have to admit, I would keep the cookware for myself! My fiance and I bought a cheap pan set from Costco, and the medium-size sauce pan (which is the one used most often) does not have a lid that fits it! It’s so annoying! A new cookware set with coordinating lids would bring such light to my life!

I would keep them for myself. I have my Mother’s pot and pans from when she got married and they are over 40 years old. The first thing I would cook would be dinner for my family. Maybe some homemade pasta sauce.

I would keep these for myself as someone who has just recently gotten into cooking, but has the sad pots and pans of a college student even though I’ve been out of college and in my own home for many years. :) Just wanted to say thank you for all the gorgeous reicpes as well! :)

I would keep it for myself. I have a few pieces that need to be retired. The pieces that are still good in my set I would send to my daughter that is a college student and could use some nicer cookware.

I would keep these as I am in need of new pots and pans, all the non stick surface has come off mine. I have a dish I make with chicken/apple sausage, sun dried tomatoes, brussel sprouts and tortellini that is heavenly :)

I have to admit I would keep it for myself. I have a college student starting classes the first of January so he would receive my old set to take to school. Mom deserves new pans after raising twins, right? Merry Christmas to you Amanda!

Love this set! I think (with our recent little cold snap here in Auburn, AL) I’d have to get my mother-in-law’s AWESOME chicken and dumplings recipe and make some yummy warmness that could be eaten out of some of my huge coffee mugs! *hope i win* * hope i win* * hope i win*

I would keep these and use them to cook my mom some war wonton soup….her favorite I have never had a new set of pans…it would be nice to be able to cook and not have to wash the pan out and keep the food warm to finsh the meal.

I would keep them for myself! My daughter just got married this past weekend and I realized how old my kitchen gear is in comparison to her lovely new pots and pans. Honestly, though, I’d most likely give her some of the pieces, as well. Hmmm, that broccoli, bacon, chicken, rice dish sounds divine! Merry Christmas everyone and best wishes!

I would love the set for myself. But I will give it to my son who is returning as we speak from a tour of duty in Afganistan. He needs a decent set of cookware and this is an excellent one. I would include with these pots his recipes of his favorite foods so he can enjoy moms cooking even if I can not be there to cook for him.

I will definitely keep this for myself if I won. I seriously need new cookware with a family of 7 and my 2 parents just moving in with us!! I would make Chicken and Dumplings that I’ve never made and have been dying to attempt. LOL

I would keep these for my boyfriend and me. We just moved into our first home together, and still have a lot of things to get, with pots and pans being some of them! There are so many things I would make, but I’d probably cook a pound of bacon first. :)

I would use these for the daycare I’d be launching early next year. The menu is jam packed with snacks like cottage cheese and fruit and lunches such as mushroom chicken and rice meals! We would really enjoy this set!

I will keep these for myself. I have been wanting to upgrade my pots and pans for awhile now and these would be perfect. I like to cook meals and freeze them for later. I would certianly have each burner with a pot on it. I see chili, pasta sauce, Chicken stock, and somekind of soup as the first foods to christen the pots. Thank you for the opportunity. I enjoy reading your blog. Happy Holidays!!!

My mother desperately needs new pots and pans. She has been using the same ones for 30 years (or more… at least since I was born!) and she won’t get rid of them! Perhaps these would nudge her in the right direction… :)

I’d have to give them to my daughter who is away at college, in her first apartment. She’s been learning how to cook and is enjoying it, but she’s been using some pretty cheezy pots n pans to get by. I want her to make the Peas, Ham and Creamy Noodles recipe because she loves peas and ham and I just know she’d looooove your recipe! Thank you and the sponsors! I always enjoy reading your blog!
